Breather Box, how hard to get off. 200 1986

Ok, worked on Inga my recently promoted to faithful 245DL. Found oil seaping around the valve cover gasket. Flame Trap time, and yes it was clogged. So now clean and back on. But Inga in her past had the mother of all clogged flame traps that cause the rear seal to blow out and oil to blow every where. Also had a FPR fail and fill all the vacuum lines with gas.

Been reading up on the BB about the chamber where the flame trap sits. Is this hard to remove, and should you clean it and how often? Seems like something that may need attention once and while reading here.

Inquiring minds want to know,

Regards,

PT
